I have looked around and said 'Why isn't anyone starting a new thread... Why?'. And then I realized... I am someone!

Therefore please forgive me if this doesn't work the first time but I have tried to start a new thread that is not on the verge of being shut down. A new thread that can continue to DISCUSS the system we have known to call our own: Isshinshorinji Ryu Okinawa-Te.

I would like to set the most basic of ground rules.

Be respectful to each other! If not then take it to a private message or a back alley somewhere.
